Riverstone South EAW <br />Draft — December 2020 <br />b. Describe any reasonably foreseeable future projects (for which a basis of expectation has been laid) that <br />may interact with environmental effects of the proposed project within the geographic scales and <br />timeframes identified above. <br />The City of Ramsey is reviewing and has recently approved other development projects that are <br />located 0.2 to 3.8 miles from the Riverstone South development site (Table 10). These projects are <br />all residential developments. Projects in close proximity to Riverstone South could potentially <br />interact to result in cumulative effects. <br />Table 10.

Discuss the nature of the cumulative potential effects and summarize any other available information <br />relevant to determining whether there is potential for significant environmental effects due to these <br />cumulative effects. <br />Reasonably foreseeable future projects may combine with the proposed project to result in <br />cumulative effects on municipal infrastructure and natural resources. The potential for cumulative <br />effects varies with the type of resource affected and the geographic area of impact. Geographic <br />separation between projects serves to reduce the potential for cumulative effects. The six projects <br />listed in Table 10 are an average of 2.5 miles from the Riverstone South. <br />Potential cumulative effects on public infrastructure relate to municipal water supply systems, <br />sanitary sewer conveyance and treatment systems, stormwater management systems, and traffic and <br />transportation systems. The City of Ramsey has planned for continued growth and expanded <br />infrastructure system capacity to address these effects and serve anticipated future projects. The City <br />of Ramsey will consider the timing and staging of other development proposals within the context of <br />the Comprehensive Plan and related growth management tools. Cumulative effects on public <br />infrastructure are not expected to be significant. <br />31 <br />
